    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Not the ER results I wanted

Thanks,

Think i just expirenced my first Migraine Sensory Aura.

Right hand fingers went numb one by one, then whole hand, then wrist up to mid forearm. Then lower right jaw,cheek and tounge as well on same side. its been a hour so far and all as gone away but still have a lingering effect. Similar t othat of a arm or leg waking up from being asleep.

Just odd that after 3.5 weeks of migraines, that id just now get these symptoms when im starting to get better. If i wake up or it comes back, ill have to do something...

I am getting better slowly. Seems now im going every 10hrs on taking the migraine meds. I cant sleep on big pillows or it irritates my neck like i slept wrong and i get a headache.

But vision is coming back. I can drive during day now but not night yet. I do get episodes where for days i sleep in past 1-3pm. And other days i go to bed early and up at 8am. Just hit or miss on if im tired or not that day.

But all in all its getting better, as top of my head swelling is going down now as touching it dont feel sore anymore
 
Damn, i cannot believe this is still happening to you. I really hope that it clears up soon for you. Did they run any sort of other bloodwork for you too? Did it come back okay?

Thinking of you. Relax, as much as you hate it by now... lol Maybe you can drink other tastier things than OJ and Gatorade? Have you asked about things like a decaffeinated tea? Something that allows you to get liquid but in a less sugary format, too?
 
Glad your vision is returning. I'm sorry this is taking so long to go away! Wishing you the best!

Only thing with Caffiene i drink is FUZE green tea or Arizona tea, Rest i drink is Ginger Ale, OJ, Simply Apple, Gatorade as of right now.

All blood work was negative. They did soo many that it took 2 weeks to get all results back from UofM. They did from STD to metal and so on to be sure and everything was negative.

Some cases of Meningitis can go away in 1-2 weeks and some can have it for months to a year.

Thanks, This past week sucked, with waking up with stiff neck and headache. Today especially neck was bad, but after taking my pill and icing it all went away in about 45 mins.

Id never wish this crap on anyone as its not fun. And youd be home from work as well youd not want to spread it. Becomes more serious when i have Messages on Phones Vmail from local CDC wanting information of where i was and so on.
 
About the same, Just sleeping more when i am asleep, or im up 24/7 unable to sleep.

Still get migraines and stiff necks when sleeping, But can go almost whole day with only taking 2 pills for pain
 
Glad to hear things are a little better. Hopefully warmer weather and more sunshine soon will help out.
 
Almost fully recovered now as been over week of no Migraines and havent taken any meds either.

Only thing that seems to be still effected is my eyes. I can drive fine, but at times of bright lights my eyes blur out. Not sure if thats cause my eyes need better prescription after all this as the meningitis altered my Rx.
 
Thanks.

Amazing how I go from 10-16 hours straight of sleep to only doing 6-8 hours now.

It should be gone now and just get better day by day.
